Run Faster.
Well, to build speed, you gotta go faster. So, you can work on making your training runs faster, you can focus on speed work, you can implement some weight lifting to increase strength....there's really a lot of things you can do.
I would reccommend two things
1. Increase your mileage
2. High quality(speed) on your shorter runs.
